Self-hosted archive

Linkwarden alternatives (2026)

Linkwarden (19k+ GitHub stars) collects, annotates, and fully preserves pages. Cloud is $3/user/month billed yearly with a 14-day trial. Self-host is the point for many users.

Questions

Does Markwise archive the full page?+

It stores the URL, metadata, and extracted text used for search and Copilot. It is not a replacement for Linkwarden's full-page preservation if the live URL dies.
